PREFACE.
If one may judge by the contents of his third protocol book, it is
probable that William Hegait ceased to be town-clerk about the end of
the year 1568. After the passing of the Act of Parliament, 1567, c. 34,
no sasine could be validly given in burgage property except by "ane of
the baillies of the burgh and the common clerk thairof." Hegait continued
to officiate in such procedure till November in the following year; but
from that time his book consists principally of a record of transactions
connected with landward estates, some of them as far distant as the shires
of Wigtown and Argyle. With three exceptions (Nos. 1008-9 and 1042) it
contains no protocol relating to property in Glasgow.
It is believed that the writer of these three volumes of protocols now
concluded, was the William Hegait who got into disfavour with Queen Mary
for circulating rumours regarding the variances between Damley and her.
The circumstances are narrated in a letter by the Queen to the archbishop of
Glasgow, written a few weeks previous to the Kirk of Field tragedy. The
passages in the letter relating to Hegait are reproduced in Appendix No. IV.
In Appendix No. I. abstracts are given of the protocols of Michael
Fleming, a Glasgow notary, whose book, as mentioned in the preface to
last volume, is preserved in the General Eegister House at Edinburgh.
Fleming has not been identified as a town-clerk of Glasgow, but, seeing
that the proceedings recorded by him relate almost exclusively to Glasgow
properties and affairs, the propriety of including them in the present series
is obvious. The last of these protocols is ten years earlier in date than
the oldest protocol book preserved in Glasgow. Michael Huchissone was
"commone clerk" in 1539 (Appendix HI.), but no book of his is extant
viii PREFACK
The editor has to express his acknowledgments to Mr. J. Maitland
Thomson, Curator of the Historical Department^ for the facilities afforded
by him while Fleming's protocol book was being used in the Begister
House. The abstracts have been made by the Rev. Walter M*Leod, Edinburgh.
Notaries usually wrot« their protocol books in the Latin language.
Forming an exception to this rule, Fleming's protocols are almost wholly
in the vernacular, a peculiarity of special interest which has rendered a
glossary desirable, and one has accordingly been appended.
In the next volume of the series, the second of this year's issue,
abstracts will be given of Henry Gibson's protocols, beginning in 1555.

1096. Flemyng — Heriot. 4 October, 1531.
Master William Blakstok, prelocutor of Marion Flemyng, widow of the
late Allan Heriot, appeared in the court of the barony of a very reverend
father and lord, Gavin archbishop of Glasgow, held at his palace by Archibald
Dunbar of Blakcraeg, bailie of the archbishop, for defence of the said Marion
Flemyng; and in the end of the cause he alleged (1) that there was no
procurator to prosecute the cause of Robert Heriot, who was absent; and
albeit he was admitted on finding suflBcient caution, and found the Laird '• 21.
of Artht, yet he was not sufficient, because he had neither lands nor goods
within the lordship of Glasgow; (2) He alleged that there was no libelled
citation nor libelled precept for Robert Heriot in that matter or cause, but
that he desired nothing to be decerned and adjudged to the said Robert,
but to produce the rights of both before the said lord of Glasgow and his
bailies; wherefore, if the assize should determine otherwise, it would be wilful
error; (3) He alleged that the late Allan Heriot, husband of said Marion,
was himself alone rentalled in the lands in question, in the rental book of
Glasgow, and no one with him; which rental was not deleted at the time
of his decease, on account of which, as he offered to prove, the said Allan
enjoyed the lands, as his relict also did, and was called in courts for the
same; (4) That he, the prelocutor, desired to see the rental at his client's
expense, and offered to prove that it had not been changed by her husband
in his lifetime; and by that right she should enjoy the lands by the general
custom, and by the privilege to the widows of Saint Mungo during their
widowhood; (5) That this was a question of law as well as of custom, and
F
42
PROTOCOLS OF THE
[Appx. A.D. 1531.
f . 22.
such a matter should not go to an assize of men unskiUed and unadvised,
who had no knowledge, but that the bailie and his assessors ought to decide
it; (6) That for a period beyond memory of men, without any interruption,
widows had enjoyed the rentals of their husbands diuing their widowhood,
and in like manner this Marion Flemyng ought to enjoy the rental of her
husband, and that on account of divers laws and rights which he craved to
be inserted in this instrument as they follow . . .^ On behalf of the
widow he offered to prove the premises, protesting for wilful error if the
assize should deliver to the contrary.
1097. Lyndzae. 10 October, 1531, 11 a.m.
Elizabeth Blair, wife of David Lyndzae, elder, sold to Mychael Ljmdzae,
hyr gwdson, her conjunct fee and liferent "of ane bak place, betuix the
landis of Janet Muthell on the northt and the landis of wmquhill Wylyem
Mosman on the sowtht." Done in the lodging (hospitio) of the bailie, John
Wan. Witnesses: Sir James Schaw, Mathew Forthylk, and Walter SprewlL
1098. PwDZANB — Aton— Wydderspone. 11 October, 1531, 3 p.m.
Master Nycholl Wydderspoon resigned in favour of Archibald Pwdzone
and Janet Atone, his wife, "hys place with the pertinens lyand fra the
Eyst Port and Sant Mungoys Kyrk, on the northt part of the gaet of the
samyne, betuix the landis of Jhon Gray on the eyst and the landis of
Andro Wyderspoon on the west and the bwm of Malindonar on the northt;"
lA bl&iik of half a line is left here. The rental right
referred to in the text was probably that of Allan Heryot
who, on 81 December, 1618, was " rentellit in Ramishom
and Medwflat, and in the twa part of Gardarrow, aftyr
his modyr deces, and of hyr consent" (Diocesan Register,
i., p. 76). On the same day there is an entry in the
Rental Book bearing that Allan Heriot was rentalled in
the SSSb 4d. land of Ramys Home and Medwflat, and in
688. 4d. land of Qardarrowch; "and faylyond of Alan
Heriot, Robart Heriot, his brothyr; and falyand of
Robart, Qylbart Heriot, his brodyr; rentellit in the
landis abuyne wrytin, ilk ane to bruk eftyr uthir" (lb.
pp. 76, 77). It was no doubt in consequence of this
substituted succession that Allan's widow was deprived
of her liferent. The result of the litigation is not
recorded, but as the widow's name does not appear in
the Rental Book, it may be assumed that the decision
was adverse to her claims. The next entry in the Rental
Book relating to the lands Is dated 28 January, 1646-6,
when Arthur Sinclare, brother of the Dean of Gla^^w,
is'^rentalit . . . be consent of Maister Robert Heryot,
the said Maister Robert browkand for hys tym" (76.)
Subsequent transmissions can be traced in the Rental
Book, and, eventually, the right was converted into a
feu holding under a charter granted by James Boyd,
archbishop of Glasgow, to James Fowlis of Colingtoun,
and Agnes Heriot, his spouse, dated 10 December, 1680;
confirmed by crown charter, 10 November, 1682 (Reg.
Mag. Sig. v. No. 466). Oardarroch is situated about five
miles to the north-east of Glasgow Cross. Rammishofen
is mentioned as a possession of the see of Glasgow as
early as the year 1241 (Reg. Glasg. p. 147. No. 180).
Though situated within the ancient royalty, Ramshom
ceaMd to be burgage property in consequence of the feu
charter, and when the property came into the market,
in 1606, it was acquired by the town council, in conjunc*
tion with Hutchesons' Hospital, to prevent any outsider
purchasing and improving it to the prejudice of the
burgh. The lands, now forming the site of Georf^
Square and adjacent streets, were disposed of in buildiDg
lots about the end of last century.

iFrom the 13th century onwards the records cont«iii and at a conference on the subject, held in 1524, the
many allusions to disputes and arrangements between former burn^h complained that *'the balyesand burg^essii
Glasgow and Dumbarton regarding merchandice arriv* of Dunbertane . . . had maid ane band and confedera-
ing in the Clyde. (See Glasgow Charters, pt. ii. pp. 14, tione with the citie of Glasgw without thair leif "
17, 54, 71, 146). In 1690, it was agreed that goods (Irving's Hist, of Dumbartonshire (1857) p. 166). The
arriving in ships should be purchased by commissioners bond here referred to would, it is supposed, be the
appointed by each burgh, and that the profits should be " band " or contract mentioned in the text. It will be
equally divided between the two communities (lb. p. observed that the summoning of Dumbarton repreeenta-
225). It is not unlikely that a somewhat similar tives before the consistorial court was all^ired to be an
arrangement subsisted in 1531 though the record of it infringement of the bond ; but in some other respects
has not been preserved. Renfrew had also its contro- thenatureof the transaction, as narrated in the protocol,

iThe words in the ori^nal are : " Et diotus magister
ICartinus promisit de recto, per extentionem sue manus
dextre, et de non contradicendo in futurum in judioio
neque extra." "Straiking" hands was a common mode
of denoting a concluded contract. In this connection,
Jameson interprets " straiking " as Joining hands. One
of the meanings, howe\'er, of the old Scottish word
itraik^ or ttreik, is stretch, and this signification woald
coincide better with the gesture noticed in the text.
Knox appears to have used the expression in the latter
sense when, in narrating the delivery of Geoi^ Wlihaii
to the Earl of Bothwell, he alludes to the " proml ti
maid in the presence of God, and handis straoked upon
hoith the parties, for observatioun of the premiaset**
(History, i. 139-42 ; quoted by Hill Burton in History of
Scotland, iii. p. 255). Stretching out the hand may,
perhaps, have been the recognised fonn of making a
promise, while the joining of hands might take plaoe
when mutual obligations were undertaken.

office of the bailie of the said burgh, of free heritage, regress and ingress

In an old but undated rental of St. Nioholaa Hospital
there occurs the entry—" James Elphinstoune of Wood-
side, for his lands outwith the port, at the back of the
castle, £6 18s. 4d.," being the equivalent of 10 merkt
How the rental or feuduty came to be augmented baa
not been ascertained.
At the present day the corp<M»tion of Glasgow, as
owners of that part of St. Mungo's burying groond,
situated between the Asylum for the Blind and the
Boyal Infirmary, pay a feuduty to St Nicholas Hoq>itBl
which, though now of larger amount, is probably in
continuation of the money payable under Sir Mark
Jamesoun's foundation. In the title deeds of the
burying ground the original piece, of whicdi it foniw a
part, was held of the preceptor of St Nicholas Hoe|rital
for payment of a yearly feuduty of ten merka, and waa
described as lying near the Stablegreen ^rt, bounded
on the south by the yards sometime belonging to the
archbishop of Glasgow, afterwMds to the King, and
by the yards belonging to the earl of Wigtown, and on the
west by the high road entering the Stable Qreoi Poit.
This ground, called Spring Gardens, was acquired for
the purpose of a town's hospital in 1817 (to be substitnted
for the old hospital in Clyde Street, then proposed to be
removed), but was subsequently tiansferred to trosteea
for the erection of the Asylum for the Blind. The
asylum trustees, in 1833, sold to the corporation of
Glasgow 7653 square yards as burying ground, and of
the latter portion more than the half, via., 447S aquare
yards, was purchased by the Boyal Infirmary tmatees in
1860.
The reference (pp 117, 110) to vicars in bvrgo and
in rure indicates that in pre>Beformation time* there
existed an arrangement similar to that introduced
when, for ecclesiastical purposes, the landward disferii^
now known as the Barony Pariah, was disjoined from
the urban or burghal terriUuy.
